Special guest, Maya Rodale, joins the ladies to talk about her newest novel, An Heiress to Remember, as well as two romantic comedies that feature characters “of a certain age”: Something’s Gotta Give and Book Club. From Hollywood’s treatment of older female characters, to Christian Grey, to the phenomenon of “competence porn,” this episode takes a closer look at many of the strategies Hollywood employs to cast the romantic comedy as a frivolous genre.
